Manchester United vs Manchester City LIVE: Pep Guardiola expresses his frustration before the Manchester Derby, says ‘Nobody Helps Us-‘ Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City tops UEFA Champions League’s Group A as his side thrashed Club Brugge 4-1 and Messi-less PSG dropped points against RB Leipzig. However, the Spanish boss was not too happy with the scheduling done by the Premier League ahead of the heavyweight clash on Saturday.

This means that the Man City players will only get a day’s rest before they have to make the short trip to Old Trafford. Pep Guardiola complained about the fixture congestion.

Manchester United vs Manchester City- Pep Guardiola’s frustration

The Catalan coach was furious after the match against Club Brugge due to Manchester City’s overcrowded calendar. Guardiola stated that Manchester City earns all they have managed to accomplish over the last few years and emphasized that nothing has been handed to them under his tenure.

If it was tomorrow, we would play tomorrow,” Guardiola said after the 4-1 win over Club Brugge.

The schedule is the schedule, sometimes we play Tuesday, sometimes Friday. Sometimes it is 12:30 or sometimes 5:30 pm. I am pretty sure at 12:30 on Saturday we will be at Old Trafford,’ continued the Premier League defending Champion. “When you are Manchester City you realize nobody helps you – no one.”

Everything we have done, we have to do it. That is why I am so satisfied. When you are in big clubs, after that, I understand. Maybe. Here no. If we win, we do it. I know it perfectly [because] all the titles I won before I did at big clubs.

The Catalan has won eight major trophies, including 3 Premier League titles, in his time at the Etihad Stadium. However, his record against Manchester United has not been as dominant.

He won his first three Premier League matches at Old Trafford as City boss – the first two against old Jose Mourinho but won only once at home in that time, while there was also a League Cup loss.

Overall he surpassed Mourinho with three wins to two from six games in all competitions but Solskjaer’s reign has rebalanced the record.
